Wow! FINALLY. I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get this to work and now my reversers are working just like they would in the Airbus which makes it so much easier! Just tested this on a rejected take off and everything worked perfectly! Thank you!
I bought the PMDG-777 as my first Boeing or even Aircraft with an irl yoke a week ago and since then I was trying to set up my Thrustmaster Officer Pack and you are the first one to actually get it perfectly explained and working! Thank you so much!!!
I did everything as in the video, but the reverse does not work for me. It activates literally by 9% and then to switch to gas, I need to click the mouse in the cabin itself
It does work, but it seems that you have to start the engine to see it working entirely. The reversers won't work when you are on cold and dark on the apron.
@@molotkovdmitry Yes, the problem was that I checked when the plane was not in motion. As soon as I accelerated and turned on the reverse, everything worked
Very good tutorial. As I am sure you are aware, you can adjust the sensitivity so that Reverse Thrust is not always at 100%, it can be graduated exactly as you want by where you put the levers in reverse thrust, exactly like the forward thrust.
Thank you for this. My only issue now is that I have to check reverse axis to make it go in the correct direction, whenever I'm out of reverse thrust my plane shoots forward for some reason, and everytime I exit the menu back into the game no matter where the stick is, it's always full power.
Tried so many tutorials for this issue! Found one that semi worked but not happy with it. Never seen it done like this before. Look forward to trying it when I get back!! Thanks as always 😁👍🏻
I am not sure what I am doing wrong, I have your exact setting but it not fully registering like yours in the video. Its almost if I need to calibrate it with the 737 but nothing in the menu.
I am really desperate... I have seen this tutorial and other one which are same settings, but even if I follow 100% all the steps, its not working for me - the IDLE to TOGA works fine, when I engage REV buttons and move to REV, PMDG will respon with REV idle (first position) and then its stuck here no matter what... I have to click with mouse to the REV lever in order to get the throttle back in control :(
Same for me. The reverse does not fully engage, but then the levels stay stuck in one position and nothing moves. I created my setup by duplicating the default.
I'm also having this issue, with this throttle as well as with other throttles. Seems like a bug with PMDG as I don't have this issue with other planes.
Found a workaround. You can assign button 1 to "Toogle reverse thrust". Once you move the thrust levers out of the reverse position into idle, just click the button twice and reverse deactivates. Not realistic but oh well..
@@AirNOTT that’s true, I’m interested to see how long I’ll have the due diligence to unscrew and replace the little thing at the bottom when switching aircraft types before I just push through them aswell 😅
Hello i have followed your tutorial regarding the set up of the TCA but what happens is the following.when i try to activate the reverse on engine 2 instead of reversing it goes full throttle.any chance to explain me what happened here?thanx in advance
ABOUT THE DETENTS!! If you want to remove them, you can find 2 plastic pieces under the quadrant held in with two screws each. They are right under the actual levers themselves. You can un-screw these and remove the detents as a whole. When you want them back, just simply screw them back in. The ridges should be facing up towards where the levers would be at 100% throttle
great video thank you so much, i have a question did anyone find a way to make use of the eng 1 & 2 levers aswell as the autobreak or are those just dead on the pmdg 737 and 777? i cant find a way to do it, thank you for any advice!
Thanks again for your Boeing profile. I have bought the Black Square Turbine Duke and cannot set up my TCA Airbus panel to work properly with reverse prop pitch. Do you have any advice on this. Thanks Paul
Hi there, I am using Airbus throttles for PMDG 738 which is set up following your settings. I noticed when thrust reverse goes to idle thrust my auto brakes disarms. Would greatly appreciate your help on this. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. Just recieved my airbus trhottle quadrant but i have problems binding the right axis. IIn the windows device manager i have turned on the virtual buttons option. I copied a profile to PMDG. Once in the 737 i can move the throttle up and down and in game same happens until i activate the reverse thrust on the trustmaster quadrant, the PMDG throttles get stuck. Once i delete the binding in MSFS i cannot rebind the throttles as i can only bind buttons...Can you explain how you mapped engines 3 and 4 to the quadrant?
@AirNOTT have you ever run across where the 737 throttles with TCA Airbus become unresponsive? Like when you hit reverse it doesn't do anything no movement from the throttles in-game?
Thanks a lot for this video. I tested it for the PMDG 777/Msfs and it works. One Question. Did you also have a instruction for the engine start with the Thrustmaster Airbus TCA?
@AirNOTT I tried doing the same as per your video for thr pmdg 777 but when my tca is at idle,the throttle in the pmdg777 is at around 25 percent throttle...any fixes please? Love the videos.❤
I did all you said in the video and it works but I have an issue where one of the levers on the 737 randomly rolls back without me touching it especially when setting toga thrust dont know whats happening anyone can help?
I have the bigger airbus throttle pack with the speedbrake and flaps etc however the auto brakes and as you may have noticed engine starters dont work on the boeing and if it does I haven't found a way to do it
Can you help me setup the Airbus TCA Throttle Quadrant for the A340? I'm using your settings for the 4 engines (and only dual throttles on the thrustmaster) but I cannot for the life of me get them in cl, flex togo etc. i'm going crazy here.
Does the pmdg 737 still work properly if you have a side stick? (before anyone says just buy a yoke, I don’t have a lot of room and I don’t really want to buy one for 1 aircraft)
Anyone else here had the issue that it selects reverse but then doesn't come back out of reverse when moving the throttle levers back to idle? Only way i can get it out of reverse is by moving the levers in the cockpit with my mouse!
@@toastedtea I figured it out in the end, turns out you have to have engines running! I was trying to set it up with the engines off and it wouldn’t work. As soon as I fired engines up it all worked beautifully
Nice Video, I almost got it working, however the reversers in the aircraft gets stuck (id say about 20 percent extended) when I enable reverse thrust on my physical throttle. I did bind Buttons 12 and 16 to Thottle 1/2 Decrease. The only way I can unstuck it is by manuelly resetting the thrust reverse levers inside the aircraft. Did something similar happen to any of you and does anybody know how I can fix that problem? Maybe there is a setting inside the aircraft that I missed?
@@Marco-vp1fy Thanks for your reply, but the Issue has actually fixed itself: It seems that the thrust reverse freeze only occurs on ground / when parking. I have flown about 3 approaches and it worked everytime without a problem.
I've found your video a lot different from others on RUclips, specially thrust and reverse setup and sensibility. In any case i'm testing it now. I'd like too a way to use the Eng on/off of Tca Throttle quadrant for cutoff option ( when reaching 25%), do you believe possible? Many and many thanks
i have the issue that my throttle isnt using the full length of the quadrant, idle position on the quadrant is in the sim at 30-40%, full reverse on the quadrant is idle in the sim how do i fix this?
It all worked apart from once I put it in reverse, it's stuck there..? Any ideas mate? I can just tap F3 to take it out of reverse but can't figure out a way to fix it
@@kingbarnab344 I did fix it but I’m not sure how, I have a feeling it’s because I tried it with nothing turned on on the aircraft because after that comment I did a flight and it all worked fine. Not sure how it would make a difference but it did
Try giving this a shot. Flip the quadrant over and remove the 8 black screws that hold the black plastic tabs into place. Remove those tabs and flip them around. This will then remove all the detents from the quadrant. You can then lock the reversers into the upright potion which allows you use to the full range of the throttles. I then simply bind the left side "auto throttle" button aka the red button on the left engine throttle. So that if you press and hold it.. It'll activate the reverse thrust. This also then allows full range of both the throttles allowing you to not just 100% reverse when not needed. You would need to create a separate profile for Boeing and Airbus in msfs and would need to unscrew the tabs each time. But I found you can do that while the sim is loading up.
Using the "decrease" to move the throttle to reverse is just brilliant! Thank you!
Wow! FINALLY. I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get this to work and now my reversers are working just like they would in the Airbus which makes it so much easier! Just tested this on a rejected take off and everything worked perfectly! Thank you!

Tell that to the commenters 😅
Absolutely what I needed to use my TCA Throttle Quadrant for the PMDG 777. Amazing thank you! New subscriber here.
After watching 20-ish different videoes, finally I found one that makes sense.... and works first time. Thank you. 😁

You made the right video for me at the right moment. You saved me a lot of work! Thx, mate! 😎👍🏻
No problem! Glad it could help 👍
Absolutely nothing wrong with your set up using yoke and airbus throttle some people just love a good moan mate. Keep up the great work 👍🏻
Well said

Great, I'm using the TCA Airbus pack with Boeing - very happy with the setup but your video really helped me set it up correctly! Thanks so much....
Great to hear!

Enjoy the sunshine!
This is so much helpful! The default only work for an Airbus, not 738. Love it! Thank you!
Thanks! This helped me a lot, not only for Boeing but other aircrafts without detend and having a more fluid throttle
I am not sure what I am doing wrong, I have your exact setting but it not fully registering like yours in the video. Its almost if I need to calibrate it with the 737 but nothing in the menu.
That works perfectly for me on PMDG 737 and Horizon 787-9, thanks and Happy 2024!
Glad to hear it. You too!
Simple but effective video. As they should be my friend. This works like a charm. Bravo!

No problem, glad it helped 👍
you can actually remove a little element out of the bottom of the throttles which can remove the detents
Yes that’s right, but I personally don’t find them to be annoying when flying Boeing and just push through them
@@AirNOTT that’s true, I’m interested to see how long I’ll have the due diligence to unscrew and replace the little thing at the bottom when switching aircraft types before I just push through them aswell 😅
Thanks!! This helped me get my throttle setup.
No problem! Glad it helped
Mine on the sensivity part it doesn't go smooth, in 3/4 of the thrust it just gives a jump to toga.
Hiya, how do you do the hold button, then increase power one? Thanks.
Hello i have followed your tutorial regarding the set up of the TCA but what happens is the following.when i try to activate the reverse on engine 2 instead of reversing it goes full throttle.any chance to explain me what happened here?thanx in advance
Important: You MUST assign the "Throttle# Axis (0 to 100%)"" Axis, not the "Throttle# Axis as for the Airbus 😎
ABOUT THE DETENTS!!
If you want to remove them, you can find 2 plastic pieces under the quadrant held in with two screws each. They are right under the actual levers themselves.
You can un-screw these and remove the detents as a whole.
When you want them back, just simply screw them back in. The ridges should be facing up towards where the levers would be at 100% throttle
Yep, very true. Though i switch between Boeing and Airbus quite a lot so it may get annoying switching them out
Hello, got the levers set nicely, have you been able to set up the engine switches? I've been trying, but with no luck.
I have, but only recently. I did so using spad.next - there’s a recent video on the channel with the details
Tried every setting as is, the throttle didnt move an inch though in settings the bar moved...
You need to restart the plane
great video thank you so much, i have a question did anyone find a way to make use of the eng 1 & 2 levers aswell as the autobreak or are those just dead on the pmdg 737 and 777? i cant find a way to do it, thank you for any advice!
I believe spad.next will help here. I’m planning another video on the topic soon
For some reason my throttle randomly increases speed to full throttle when taxiing
you are legend!!! ..great explanation, but can you tell me how the hell did you figure out that is button 12 and 16 :)?
I forget where I saw it, a forum post months ago I think. Didn’t seem like many knew so figured I’d share
There’s no throttle decrease for me how do I add that?
for the 777-300ER: It works fine until i actually go into Reverse, then i seem to stay stuck in reverse and cannot get out of it anymore
Weird, I’ve heard people say the same but it’s not an issue I can replicate
im having the same issue. I'm hoping theres a fix
Thank you so much, super effective and well explained! Saludos from Spain!
You’re welcome!
Sweet! Do the fuel cutoff switches work as well? If so, do you know what they’re actually called in Controls Options?
It’s my understanding you need something like spad.next for that
@@AirNOTT Ok, thanks! Maybe I’ll fart around with that this weekend.
Thanks again for your Boeing profile. I have bought the Black Square Turbine Duke and cannot set up my TCA Airbus panel to work properly with reverse prop pitch. Do you have any advice on this. Thanks Paul
Do you mind showing your binds for the Airbus add-on pack? Just got them and can't seem to get the spoilers to map correctly!
All default I believe.
this worked but my throttle doesnt get to 100% it get to 70 % how do I fix it?
Hi there, I am using Airbus throttles for PMDG 738 which is set up following your settings. I noticed when thrust reverse goes to idle thrust my auto brakes disarms. Would greatly appreciate your help on this. Thank you!

Does the pmdg 737 still work properly if you have a side stick? (before anyone says just buy a yoke, I don’t have a lot of room and I don’t really want to buy one for 1 aircraft)
Yeah you can fly with a side stick, I did for many months before getting the yoke.
My Axis is not in sync with the plane. When the TCA is in idle the throttle in the plane is still at about 25%
What am i missing? Thanks!
Same here..did u solve this issue?
Thanks for this! I really needed it!
You’re welcome!
Very well explained. Thanks for your efforts.
Cheers Andy!

Yea beacuse I do want the airbus thrustmaster soon @@AirNOTT
do you have any settings for the airbus tca joystick for the 737
I don’t thing I made any changes to the stick beyond the defaults. What are you struggling with?
when i try to use the the airbus sidestick whith the 737 the yoke won't move
also whe i try to put the revers trust to idle it won't go to idle and in won't go full revers and once i put it to reverse it won't go to idle
doesnt work at all man, for me when i go back to idle the reverse move a notch and then get stuck. Same exact settings as yours
You’ve set the sensitivity curves too? Make sure you don’t have any other controls mapped to the throttles also
@@AirNOTT yeah set the curves and no others are mapped to the throttle
👍👍👍
Tks !!
You can disable the detents really easy
Having to flip over your throttle, and then have to screw it out and in everytime is a pain, especially when u can just push thru the detents.
New Vid who this!
i copied you and have the same quadrant it does not work at all
Try giving this a shot. Flip the quadrant over and remove the 8 black screws that hold the black plastic tabs into place. Remove those tabs and flip them around.

This also then allows full range of both the throttles allowing you to not just 100% reverse when not needed. You would need to create a separate profile for Boeing and Airbus in msfs and would need to unscrew the tabs each time. But I found you can do that while the sim is loading up.
